net: Make setsockopt() optlen be unsigned.

2009-09-30T23:12:20Z

This provides safety against negative optlen at the type level instead of depending upon (sometimes non-trivial) checks against this sprinkled all over the the place, in each and every implementation. Based upon work done by Arjan van de Ven and feedback from Linus Torvalds. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

headers: smp_lock.h redux

2009-07-12T19:22:34Z

* Remove smp_lock.h from files which don't need it (including some headers!) * Add smp_lock.h to files which do need it * Make smp_lock.h include conditional in hardirq.h It's needed only for one kernel_locked() usage which is under CONFIG_PREEMPT This will make hardirq.h inclusion cheaper for every PREEMPT=n config (which includes allmodconfig/allyesconfig, BTW) Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

net: correct off-by-one write allocations reports

2009-06-18T07:29:12Z

commit 2b85a34e911bf483c27cfdd124aeb1605145dc80 (net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put() on each tx) changed initial sk_wmem_alloc value. We need to take into account this offset when reporting sk_wmem_alloc to user, in PROC_FS files or various ioctls (SIOCOUTQ/TIOCOUTQ) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipx: use constant for strings and desciptor

2009-03-22T02:06:51Z

Fix compiler warning about non-const format string. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Acked-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: convert usage of packet_type to read_mostly

2009-03-10T12:22:43Z

Protocols that use packet_type can be __read_mostly section for better locality. Elminate any unnecessary initializations of NULL. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: replace uses of __constant_{endian}

2009-02-01T08:45:17Z

Base versions handle constant folding now. Signed-off-by: Harvey Harrison Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: '&' redux

2008-11-04T02:21:05Z

I want to compile out proc_* and sysctl_* handlers totally and stub them to NULL depending on config options, however usage of & will prevent this, since taking adress of NULL pointer will break compilation. So, drop & in front of every ->proc_handler and every ->strategy handler, it was never needed in fact. Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

netns: Use net_eq() to compare net-namespaces for optimization.

2008-07-20T05:34:43Z

Without CONFIG_NET_NS, namespace is always &init_net. Compiler will be able to omit namespace comparisons with this patch. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[NET] NETNS: Omit net_device->nd_net without CONFIG_NET_NS.

2008-03-25T19:39:53Z

Introduce per-net_device inlines: dev_net(), dev_net_set(). Without CONFIG_NET_NS, no namespace other than &init_net exists. Let's explicitly define them to help compiler optimizations. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki

[IPX]: Use proc_create() to setup ->proc_fops first

2008-02-28T22:06:14Z

Use proc_create() to make sure that ->proc_fops be setup before gluing PDE to main tree. Signed-off-by: Wang Chen Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
